Steps:
- Heat Pressure Cooker on medium heat and add olive oil.
- Chop onion and garlic however fine you like and add to hot oil.
- Cook for a minute do not brown!
- Throw in the rest of your spices except salt.
- Throw in the carrot( I leave it in large chunks and remove it but you may keep it in sauce if you like so you can cut it to whatever size you like or even mince it).
- Add the can of Tomatoes and some water--I use about 1/4 of the tomato can full of water -- it gets thick so you need to add enough or it could stick and burn.
- Put lid on cooker and bring to pressure. Turn down enough to keep it low but still have pressure in pot. Cook for 1/2 Hour. Turn off and bring pressure down by either quick release method or take off burner and let it naturally release.
- Take of lid and taste --add salt, maybe a pinch of sugar if you want. You can also stir in some more EVOO at this point remove carrot (or not), Voila! Done!
- *** I like it on Penne pasta with some grated Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese but you can use it on whatever you like. Lasagana, Veal Cutlet. Makes a good base for Clam Zuppa sauce or Tuna sauce.

Steps:
- Heat a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the oil and allow it to warm for 1 minute, then add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and fragrant, 2 minutes.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and crushed red pepper flakes if desired. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the flavors meld, 7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper or sugar to taste.
Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will give your sauce the best possible flavor. If you can, use fresh tomatoes from your garden or a local farmer's market. When tomatoes are not in season, using canned crushed tomatoes or diced tomatoes are good alternatives.
- Roast your tomatoes before making the sauce. This will caramelize the sugars in the tomatoes and give your sauce a richer, deeper flavor.
- Add a variety of herbs and spices to your sauce. This will give it a more complex flavor. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, onion, and red pepper flakes.
- Let your sauce simmer for a long time. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer your sauce, the better it will taste. At least 30 minutes of simmering time is recommended, and up to an hour or more is even better.
- Use a pressure cooker to make your sauce. This will cut down on the cooking time and still allow you to get a flavorful sauce. You can find many recipes for pressure cooker marinara sauce online.
